I K Achplani epub Decision Making in Public Sector: With Case Studies

The success of any Organization – be it a Private or a Public Sector Enterprise (PSE) depends, to a greater degree, on the strength of its decision-making structure. A timely and well-considered decision is like the spark that sets the machinery into motion. Thus, the importance of decision making needs to be appreciated and should not be undermined at any stage. However, in the case of PSE, the problem is compounded as decision making is found wanting practically at all levels.The due adherence to the laid down procedures and proper recording of the reason for the deviation, if any, is also cited as one of the important factors responsible for delay in PSEs. This could also be a result of the fear of vigilance or audit, inadequate data/MIS, no proper appraisal/analysis, etc.This book on ‘Decision Making in Public Sector’ by Shri I K Achplani can prove to be the guide that everyone is on a look out for. Shri Achplani has gathered varied experiences during his service career so far and has quite beautifully penned down his thoughts, ideas and suggestions in the form of a book.“Not only will it help the people who hold decision-making positions today, but this book is a good read even for those aspiring to reach these positions of decision-making in future.”Mr. A K Chaudhary, Chairman, SAIL(A Maharatna PSE)
